Honest, real, personal. Nathan's Story reveals a teenager's life that is interrupted by an unplanned pregnancy and shows how a young father balances his dreams for the future with the daunting demands of a family. Teenage Sex and Fatherhood: Nathan's Story, a KUED production, is an unflinching portrayal of a family created by circumstance and their struggle to stay together. Nathan's Story follows Nathan Meier, a teenage father living in Salt Lake City, his wife, Jennifer, and their daughter Dakota through a tumultuous time when daily survival is difficult and the future is uncertain. Nathan is a young teen with dreams of being a filmmaker when he discovers he's gotten his girlfriend, Jennifer, pregnant. An aspiring artist and filmmaker, he worked with KUED producer Colleen Casto to create an intensely candid and compelling documentary revealing the trials and tribulations faced by the often-overlooked teen father.
