The ARTE Reportage team followed the harsh living conditions of Afghan refugees. The Iranian capital has become one vast work site. For a long time now, Iranians no longer notice the needy actors of this urban mutation.

Iran officially has one million Afghan refugees on its territory. In addition, there are numerous others, who do not register themselves. Every night, hundreds of Afghans illegally cross the vast border that separates the two countries. They are fleeing violence and poverty.
They live in basic huts, and work day and night. The youngest are just 13 years old.
