In 1999, director Tran Anh Hung invited Hai Yen, only 17 at that time, to play a role in the film The Vertical Ray of the Sun (Vietnam/France).[3]

In 2000, Hai Yen appeared again in the film Song of the Stork (Vũ khúc con cò), a co-production between Vietnam and Singapore, directed by Nguyễn Phan Quang Bình (Vietnam) and Jonathan Foo (Singapore).

Hai Yen was nominated for the "Best Actress in a Supporting Role – Drama" at Golden Satellite Award in 2002 for her role in The Quiet American.[2]

In 2005, Hai Yen was the leading actress in Story of Pao (Chuyện của Pao) directed by her ex-husband Ngo Quang Hai. This is the first Vietnamese film she starred as the leading actress. It received the Vietnam Cinema Association's Golden Kite Awards for "Best Feature Film", "Best Actress" (for Hai Yen), "Best Supporting Actress", and "Best Director of Photography", as well as the "Special Jury Award" at the 51st Asia Pacific Film Festival.[6][7] The film was premiered at various film festivals, including the 30th Montreal World Film Festival (First Film World Competition),[8] the Pusan International Film Festival in 2006 (A Window on Asian Cinema & Curtain Call Stars section), the 17th Cinequest Film Festival (Maverick Narrative Competition), and the Bangkok International Film Festival in 2007 (ASEAN Film Competition). Story of Pao was also Hai Yen's first movie as a producer, taking care of the film's marketing and distribution. In 2006, Do Thi Hai Yen was one of 19 promising Asian actors and actresses to get to introduce during the summit of "Star Summit Asia - Curtain Call" when Story of Pao was premiered at Busan International Film Festival.[9] It was Vietnam's official submission to the Best Foreign Language Film at the Oscars 2007.[10] At the 15th Vietnam Film Festival in 2007, the film was awarded the Silver Lotus and the Best Actress Award for Hai Yen.[11]

In 2008, Hai Yen was the leading actress in the film Adrift (Chơi vơi), a co-production between Vietnam and France, directed by Bùi Thạc Chuyên.

The film was based on Nguyen Ngoc Tu's best selling short story "Boundless Rice Field", winner of the best short story prize from the Vietnam Writer's Association in 2007 and the Asean Literature Award recently. The film was premiered in the 15th Busan International Film Festival in the New Currents category.[19] The film won the Silver Lotus Prize at the Vietnam Cinema Association's Golden Kite Awards and earned her the Best Actress award at the Viet Film Fest in 2010.[20]

In 2015, Hai Yen starred in the film Big Father, Small Father and Other Stories (Cha và con và...) directed by Phan Dang Di, which became the first film by a Vietnamese director to enter the main competition section for the Golden Bear at the Berlin International Film Festival.[21] Thus, she became the first and only Vietnamese actress to star in films competing at all three of the world's most prestigious film festivals, including The Vertical Ray of the Sun (Cannes), Adrift (Venezia) and Big Father, Small Father and Other Stories (Berlin).
