Modern birth: Having a dead man’s baby

Available for over a year

Before Baruch Pozniansky died at 25 years old from cancer, he said that he wanted to have a child. So he created something called a 'biological will' and gave a sperm sample. But Baruch didn't have a wife or girlfriend. After he passed away, his mother Julia began a seven-year campaign to find a woman to have his baby. She found Liat Malka who was 35 years old and single. But there are many emotional and ethical issues involved in posthumous reproduction.
