The “Take The Beating” screenplay revolves around Rodrigo Lourdes, a drug kingpin somewhere in South America. It details his life at the height of his power.
Unlike most tales along these lines, “Take The Beating” revolves around a different aspect of the drug trade; where the cocaine actually comes from.
