You can also use a queryset to dynamically evaluate the list of values
instead of providing a list of literal values. The queryset must be
reduced to a list of individual values using the ``values()`` method, 
and then converted into a query using the ``query`` attribute::

    Entry.objects.filter(blog__in=Blog.objects.filter(name__contains='Cheddar').values('pk').query)

This queryset will be evaluated as subselect statement::

    SELET ... WHERE blog.id IN (SELECT id FROM ... WHERE NAME LIKE '%Cheddar%')
