Consider following models: 

class Product(models.Model):
    code = modeld.CharField()

class ProductTrans(models.Model):
    product = models.ForeignKey('Product')
    language = models.ChoiceField(choices=settings.LANGUAGES)
    title = models.ChaField()
    description = models.ChaField()

With this snippet is possible search through all translations of product at the same time (using string concatenation in trigger): 

Product.objects.extra(
    where = ['product_product.fulltext @@ to_tsquery(%s)'],
    params = [ 'someproduct' ]
)

For PostgreSQL >=8.4 only.
