Filmmaker finds her American dreams | CharlotteObserver.com & The Charlotte Observer Newspaper: "Ablavi Gbenyon is a Charlotte-based filmmaker who — after watching the film “Love Jones” — was inspired to start her own independent production company.

In 2007, she launched Slice of Life Entertainment (SOLE) LLC with the mission of telling universal stories that impact people for the better.

The 30-year-old creator of films like "Corporate Politics" says her own experience as a Liberian-American exemplifies how people’s perceptions, particularly those about black people, are often shaped by what they see in movies and on television."
