    profile__first_name = django_filters.CharFilter(label='First name', lookup_expr='icontains',)
    profile__last_name = django_filters.CharFilter(label='Last name', lookup_expr='icontains',)

    class Meta:
        model = Translator
        fields = fields = {
        }

2. Views.py

from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.shortcuts import render
from .filters import UserFilter

def search(request):
    user_list = User.objects.all()
    user_filter = UserFilter(request.GET, queryset=user_list)
    return render(request, 'search/user_list.html', {'filter': user_filter})

    url(r'^search/$', views.search, name='search'),
]
