Built in the '70s, the Sails of Scampia were occupied by the homeless after the earthquake of 1981. They became a symbol of degradation and an emblem of the power of the Camorra, inside the inhabitants fought for 40 years, around the Committee for the Fight of the Sails, for the demolition of the monsters of cement and asbestos, the redevelopment of the neighborhood and the construction of new housing. After the felling of two Sails in the nineties and a third in 2003, in February 2020 the felling of the Green Sail begins thanks to the "Restart Scampia" project.

A project obtained thanks to the struggle of the Committee that never gave up to carry on the district redevelopment process. In Scampia 1250 new human-sized accommodations were built for the former inhabitants of the Sails. After the demolition of the Green Sail, the remaining ones will be demolished and new housing and infrastructure will be built. Only one will remain, as a symbolic monument of what was. This is the story told by the people of the sails, the other face of Gomorrah
