Liis Remmel, formerly known as Liis Lass, is a renowned Estonian actress born on April 2, 1989, in Põltsamaa, Jõgeva County.
After graduating from Põltsamaa Gymnasium in 2008, Liis Lass pursued her passion for acting at the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre in Tallinn under the guidance of course supervisor Elmo Nüganen. She graduated in 2012, having appeared in diploma productions of works by renowned playwrights such as Neil Simon, Molière, Alexander "Sasha" Pepelyaev, and Polly Stenham.
Among her graduating classmates were notable Estonian actors, including Henrik Kalmet, Karl-Andreas Kalmet, Priit Pius, Märt Pius, Pääru Oja, Piret Krumm, Maiken Schmidt, and Kaspar Velberg.
Liis Lass made her television debut in 2012 with a role in the popular TV3 comedy-crime series Kättemaksukontor, followed by recurring roles in the Kanal 2 television crime serial Viimane võmm from 2014 to 2015 and the Kanal 2 television drama serial Restart in 2015.
Between 2010 and 2014, Lass appeared in six short films for Baltic Film and Media School's Media Department, often paired with her Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre classmate Pääru Oja.
In 2012, Lass appeared in director Ilmar Raag's French-Estonian drama Une Estonienne à Paris, playing the small role of Anne's daughter. The film stars Estonian actress Laine Mägi as Anne, an older woman who travels to Paris to care for an elderly Estonian émigré named Frida (played by French actress Jeanne Moreau),only to discover that she is not wanted.
In 2015, Lass had a starring role as Anne in the Urmas Eero Liiv directed thriller Must alpinist for Kopli Kinokompanii. The film is based on a 1989 incident involving director Urmas Eero Liiv and partly filmed in the Buryat village of Kyren where it allegedly took place. It also bears some resemblance to the Dyatlov Pass incident of 2 February 1959, where nine ski hikers mysteriously died in the northern Ural Mountains after establishing a camp on the slopes of Kholat Syakhl.
Liis Lass has also appeared in the Liina Triškina-Vanhatalo-directed Allfilm drama Võta või jäta, playing the role of Moonika, a young mother who abandons her newborn infant to the care of her ex-boyfriend, in 2018. In 2022, she appeared in the Ergo Kuld directed and period romance-drama Soo, screen written by Martin Algus and based on the 1914 novel of the same name by Oskar Luts.
