In 2013, UP Projects, Somewhere and BRITDOC launched an international Short Doc competition to find an emerging filmmaker to create a work to be premiered at the launch of The Floating Cinema.

Responding to The Floating Cinema’s 2013 theme ‘Extra-Ordinary’, Oonagh Kearney’s winning film proposal There's a Tin Cup Rolling juxtaposes two worlds: the everyday physical rhythm of life on a boat and the everyday more sedentary rhythm of life in a flat.

There's a Tin Cup Rolling is a visual celebration of the overlapping choreographies of chance, trust, love and risk… on and around Regent’s Canal. There’s a Tin Cup Rolling was commissioned by UP Projects and Somewhere with BRITDOC Foundation.
