Every night between 10 PM and 4 AM Reverend Lyle Beckman walks the streets of San Francisco. He's the city's Night Minister, the fourth man to hold the job since 1964. In his encounters with the homeless, addicts, sex workers, and those in need, Beckman seeks to comfort rather than convert. The film is a witness to intimate interactions—and a side of the city—that few people ever see. 'Even In Darkness' explores questions of faith, the necessity of interpersonal contact, and the power of empathy.
