Lack of money, inability to find a permanent job, living with parents or roommates, unsettled love relationships — this is how the life of most young people in Serbia could be described. Through the four friends' struggle with the life challenges, the series also tries to evoke the spirit of Belgrade today: it talks about those who live in it, those who leave it, but also those who return to it.

Through the intimate stories of seven young directors, October is the generational attitude towards Serbia today, shown in different perspectives and through different genres - from black comedy to melodrama, poetic portrait to the socially engaged horror. Motif that binds all of the stories together is the tenth anniversary of the democratic revolution. Each film is taking place on that day, 5th of October in 2010, and each film is differently related to the anniversary and what that event means 10 years after. The film brings fresh visions of the seven young directors who were teenagers at the time of the overthrow of president Milosevic and his regime. On a personal and emotional way they show a complex picture of modern Serbia.
