As Iran prepares to hold its presidential election to select a replacement for Hassan Rouhani, 大象传媒 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鈥檚 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 大象传媒 Persian Service for their analysis on the country鈥檚 history and the forthcoming election.
