The general objective of this article is to analyze the television fiction series Doce casas. Historia de mujeres devotas (2014) by Argentine playwright, film director and writer Santiago Loza, commissioned by Argentine Public Television. As a specific objective, the paper proposes to analyze, on the one hand, the dramaturgical procedures that are part of the director's poetics and that distinguish his writing style as well as the topics explored in his previous work, such as monologue and stylized dialogues in stories that deal with faith, desire and loneliness. On the other hand, the aim is to analyse the link that serialized narrative establishes with Argentina television, cinema, theater and literature of the last decades. The analyzed series is part of a moment of renewal and expansion of national television fiction that extended during the period 2009-2015 and aimed at artistic quality, wide offer of contents and the exploration of television language.
