The Django ORM is quite flexible and provides a lot of ways to get at the data you need without having to write raw SQL, although that option is always available. Every once in a while someone on the #django IRC channel will ask about LEFT JOIN functionality. Although, the ORM doesn’t support LEFT JOINs “out of the box” (as best as I can tell), there are creative approaches to the problem.
