Dramatic twists and turns unfold in Beyond the Gates of Heaven, showcasing agricultural scenes in the lush Salinas Valley of Monterey county in California, as the mongrel Adonis navigates his way into the farming empire caught up in the brewing conflict between the tycoon's daughter, bent on adopting the mysterious woman, and the tycoon, desperate to foil imagined intrusions into his crumbling family and the farming empire. The tycoon suspects the mysterious woman and the impostor who goes to court claiming to be his long lost son present a threat. Pulse-pounding events unravel a poignant story of rejection, betrayal, and redemption in the lives of the characters drawn into the web of conflicting emotions as both the tycoon and the upstart struggle to forget, but not to forgive, family members involved in their past abandonment.
