    surname = models.CharField(max_length=32)
    age = models.IntegerField()

forms.py

from .models import Actor
from django import forms
class ActorSearchForm(forms.Form):
    search_text =  forms.CharField(
                    required = False,
                    label='Search name or surname!',
                    widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'search here!'})
                  )

    search_age_exact = forms.IntegerField(
                    required = False,
                    label='Search age (exact match)!'
                  )

    search_age_min = forms.IntegerField(
                    required = False,
                    label='Min age'
                  )


    search_age_max = forms.IntegerField(
                    required = False,
                    label='Max age'
                  )

views.py

from .model import Actor
from .forms import ActorSearchForm
from search_views.search import SearchListView
from search_views.filters import BaseFilter

class ActorsFilter(BaseFilter):
    search_fields = {
        'search_text' : ['name', 'surname'],
        'search_age_exact' : { 'operator' : '__exact', 'fields' : ['age'] },
        'search_age_min' : { 'operator' : '__gte', 'fields' : ['age'] },
        'search_age_max' : { 'operator' : '__lte', 'fields' : ['age'] },

    }

class ActorsSearchList(SearchListView):
    model = Actor
    paginate_by = 30
    template_name = "actors/actors_list.html"
    form_class = ActorSearchForm
    filter_class = ActorsFilter

view template "actors/actors_list.html":

{% extends "base.html" %}


{% block content%}

<div class="container">

    <h2>Actors list</h2>

    <form class="form-inline" action="" method="GET">
        {{ form }}
        <button class="btn" type="submit">Search</button>
        </fieldset>
    </form>

    <table class="table table-bordered table-condensed">
        <tr>
            <th>Name</th>
            <th>Surname</th>
            <th>Age</th>
        </tr>
        {% for object in object_list %}
        <tr>
            <td>{{object.name}}</td>
            <td>{{object.surname}}</td>
            <td>{{object.age}}</td>
