Two subjects developed this Saturday: the Iranian presidential election seen by an Iranian cartoonist who has taken refuge in France, Kianoush Ramezani.

And Syrian and Iranian LGBT people who fled their country, threatened with death because of their identity.

Refugees in Turkey, their life is an obstacle course to work and be accepted.
