We bring together Iranians to discuss their lives and future prospects

As Iran prepares to hold its presidential election to select a replacement for Hassan Rouhani, Â鶹ÊÓƵAV Persian presenter Rana Rahimpour brings together Iranians, both in the country and living abroad, to hear about their lives and thoughts.

Three young Iranians discuss what it’s like to live in a country where many people want to leave and need two jobs to make ends meet. Plus two sisters - one in London and the other still living in Iran with their parents - discuss the emotional difficulties of separation.

Rana will also be joined by her colleagues from the Â鶹ÊÓƵAV Persian Service for their analysis on the country’s history and the forthcoming election.
