I know you've solved this yourself, but for future reference: there are
no such animals as "ASCII characters > 127". ASCII is a 7-bit encoding.
You could be talking about UTF-8 bytes or Unicode characters
(codepoints) in that range (or ISO-8859-1 or other encoding of choice),
but not ASCII.

Using the right terms for future problems will avoid any "wtf?!" moments
on the part of the readers.

Sometimes there's nothing like describing a problem to someone else to
help you solve it. :) I should have marked the Python strings as
Unicode like this and everything works now:

def test(request):
return render_to_response("test.html", {
"s1": u"dados",
"s2": u"aprovação",
}
  )
