Adrian Diaz is apparently living a dream. He is about to become Hamlet on stage and will leave the hotel industry to devote full time to his true calling: acting. What almost nobody knows is that Adrian is "touched" or, in other words, he has obsessive-compulsive disorder. When suffering his last panic attack during a rehearsal, the director gives him an ultimatum: either immediately seek professional help or be replaced by a substitute. Julia Whyler is a retired psychologist who specialized in obsessive-compulsive disorder. Now, without much enthusiasm, and yet burdened by his traumatic past, returns to public life to present his first book, Tú tienes la llave/ You have the key. The meeting between both, Julia and Adrián, marks a before and after in their lives forever. With the help of Julia, Adrian will face their fears in an extraordinary emotional journey and will try to find the key that will allow him to exit the labyrinth in which he is lost. But neither of them knows that is Adrian who holds the key that will allow Julia to exit hers.
