Weinstock has written and directed two feature length films. The first, Easy, centers around a woman, played by Marguerite Moreau, and her romantic life. "I wanted to make a movie about relationships, about women who didn't have very good ones." Released in 2003, Easy was shown at Sundance and Toronto and was reviewed in the New York times and the Los Angeles Times.
Weinstock's second feature film, a psychological thriller, The Moment, was released in 2013, starring Jennifer Jason Leigh, Martin Henderson, Alia Shawkat, Mariane Jean-Baptiste and Meatloaf. The Moment premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival.
Earlier in her career, while working towards a PhD in film studies and psychoanalytic theory that she did not finish, Weinstock co-wrote and co-directed a short film, Sigmund Freud's Dora, with Anthony McCall, Claire Pajaczkowska, Andrew Tyndall and Ivan Ward. The film screened at the Berlin International Film Festival, the Whitney Museum, the Collective for Living Cinema and the Whitechapel Gallery. Weinstock had a change of heart and pivoted her career towards actually making films. Weinstock went on to make Voices of Silence for German television. She then made The Clean Up, which played at the Sundance Film Festival, the Toronto International Film Festival, and the Venice Film Festival.
She served as film and video curator for an exhibition entitled, Difference: On Representation and Sexuality, at the New Museum in New York in 1984-85 and at the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London.




Personal life


Weinstock lives in New York City with her husband, artist James Welling.
