you have to create a python dictionary where the keys contain the
"field-filter spec" and the values are you "filter values". so in your
example you should do something like:
filter_kw = dict (person__slug__exact = "joe-smith")
or
filter_kw = {"person__slug__exact" = "joe-smith")
and
qs = Person.objects.filter(** filter_kw)
(I have not tried this but it should work that way)
