In Iran, the buying and selling of kidneys is legal and regulated by the state. This documentary gives an insight into ordinary life in Iran through the eyes of two young Iranians who have decided to sell a kidney. Mehrdad lost his job on the railways and now faces mounting debts. He wants to sell a kidney to fund a new job as a taxi driver. Sohaila already works long shifts at night but since her father died six years ago, she has had to support two younger sisters. Her wage alone is just not enough
