Kellerman later received a Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival (FLIFF) Lifetime Achievement Award at Cinema Paradiso in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The ceremony, which included a montage of her work and an audience question-and-answer session, was moderated by film historian Foster Hirsch. In September 2013 filmmaker Ellen Houlihan released a short film "Joan's Day Out", in which Kellerman played a grandmother who escapes from her assisted-living facility to bail her teenage granddaughter out of prison. The actress joined the "Love Can Initiative", a nonprofit organization dedicated to enriching the lives of low income families and their children, in February 2014. Kellerman would return in the second season "Maron" episode "Mom Situation", and as part of an Epix Network documentary celebrating the life of Robert Altman on August 6, 2014.
