Le Vele di Scampia is a futuristic housing estate in northern Naples and a Camorra mafia crime syndicate battlefield. Conceived by Francesco di Salvo in the late 1970s, 'Le Vele' (The Sails) were being squatted by mafia families even before completion. Today the building complex is a symbol of the Camorra’s power in the Naples region and a key centre of European drug trafficking. Matteo Garrone shot his movie Gomorra based on the novel by Roberto Saviano on the site in 2008. German photographer Tobias Zielony ’s film Le Vele di Scampia (2009) originates in this very place.
