Abbas Kiarostami reprend le dispositif de son film Ten sorti en 2002 : une voiture circulait dans les rues de Téhéran, avec deux caméras fixées sur le tableau de bord, une filmant la conductrice et l'autre filmant le passager. Dans 10 on Ten, une seule caméra filme le conducteur qui se trouve être Kiarostami lui-même. En roulant au travers de la campagne iranienne, il évoque devant le spectateur la réalisation de Ten. Ceci est le point de départ d'une réflexion plus générale sur le processus de création du réalisateur, son rapport au documentaire, au sujet filmé, aux caméras numériques et à l'industrie du cinéma.

The films consists almost exclusively of interviews with a number of pupils and two fathers of pupils at Shahid Masumi school who are asked to give their opinion on the traditional teaching practice of assigning homework. Issues such as some parents' illiteracy and their inability to help their children with the homework are raised. The children don't always succeed in hiding the more embarrassing aspects of their family life (corporal punishment, poverty, etc.).

Hossain Sabzian is a cinephile, and in particular a big fan of popular Iranian director Mohsen Makhmalbaf. One day, Sabzian is riding a bus with a copy of the novel The Cyclist; Mrs. Ahankhah sits next to him, revealing she is a fan of the novel's film adaptation. Sabzian tells her that he himself is Makhmalbaf, the maker. She is then surprised that a famous director would ride public transportation; Sabzian explains in response (posing as Makhmalbaf) that he finds his film subjects this way, telling her that art must spring from life. Posing as Makhmalbaf from this point on, Sabzian visits the Ahankhah family several times over the next two weeks. He flatters them by saying he wants to use not only their house in his next film, but also their sons as actors in it. He even obtains a substantial amount of money from them (ostensibly to prepare for the film). Mr. Ahankhah has his suspicions, however, especially when a magazine photo shows a younger Makhmalbaf with darker hair than that of Sabzian. He invites a journalist (Hossain Farazmand) over, who confirms Sabzian is indeed an impostor. The police come to arrest Sabzian, while Farazmand takes several pictures for his upcoming article: "Bogus Makhmalbaf Arrested." Kiarostami intersperses these scenes throughout the film, in which the events described above do not progress chronologically; they are re-enactments.

Le réalisateur Jafar Panahi, se faisant passer pour un chauffeur du nom d'Aghayé Panahi (en persan : آقای پناهی, Mr. Panahi) se trouve au volant d’un taxi partagé dans la capitale iranienne de Téhéran dans lequel il a installé une caméra. Cette caméra filme une succession d’archétypes iraniens variés qui prennent tous place à bord du taxi, les personnages étant plus ou moins conscients du stratagème orchestré par le cinéaste. Hommes ou femmes, jeunes ou vieux, riches ou pauvres, traditionalistes ou modernistes, aussi bien vendeur de vidéos pirates que défenseur des droits de l'homme, tous se retrouvent tour à tour dans le véhicule. Chaque personnage propose un portrait iranien spécifique et est également porteur d’un thème de société. Le film se termine par le vol de la caméra du taxi.

Panahi is under house arrest, awaiting the result of his appeal of a six-year prison sentence and twenty-year ban on film-making, leaving the country or giving media interviews for "propaganda against the regime". Bored and desperate that this verdict may mean his artistic death, he starts documenting his life. He begins filming himself in his apartment, then calls his friend and collaborator, Mirtahmasb, who arrives at the apartment and takes over the camera. Banned from film making and determined to save at least some of his artistic visions, Panahi reads some of the scenario from the movie he was planning to make. Upon hearing fireworks marking the ancient Iranian festival Chaharshanbe Suri that precedes the Persian new year, Nouruz, and other suspicious noises resembling gunshots, he gets scared and quickly stops this project. He turns on the TV to hear the news. We see news about the tsunami in Japan and later it is announced that Iran's president has banned any fireworks and bonfires that used to mark Chaharshanbe Suri.
