East of the Rockies is a Canadian mobile augmented reality video game application, produced by the National Film Board of Canada and released in 2019.[1] Written by novelist Joy Kogawa based partially on her novels Obasan and Itsuka,[2] the project tells the story of Yuki, a young Japanese Canadian girl in the 1940s who is caught up with her family in the internment of Japanese Canadians during World War II.[3]

The character of Yuki is voiced by Kogawa's granddaughter, Anne Canute.[3]

The application was released to the Apple Store in March 2019 for iPhones and iPads running iOS 12 or higher.[2] A "pop-up experience" version of the application was also screened at the 2019 Toronto Reel Asian International Film Festival.[3]

The project won the Canadian Screen Award for Best Video Game Narrative at the 8th Canadian Screen Awards in 2020.[4]
