django view variable matching to a queryset

Sorry if the title doesn't make sense, but I didn't know how else to word it, first I will show you my code. 

def page(request, page_lang='eng', page_title='home'):

    page_lang = SiteLanguage.objects.get(title=page_lang)
    context = {
        'page_lang': page_lang,
        'page_content': page_lang.page_title
    }

So in my context I want to have the key 'page_content' match with the value page_lang.home so I can avoid putting a bunch of logic into the code. Can this be done?

you have to use getattr() and page_lang should be renamed to page_lang_name

def page(request, page_lang_name='eng', page_title='home'):
    page_lang_obj = SiteLanguage.objects.get(title=page_lang_name)
    context = {
        'page_lang': page_lang_obj,
        'page_content': getattr(page_lang_obj, page_title) 
    }
