 When Django detects wrong CSRF token, it shows an error using view
 django.views.csrf.csrf_failure. That file ends with
 {{{
     return HttpResponseForbidden(t.render(c), content_type="text/html;")
 }}}
 When the template (CSRF_FAILURE_TEMPLATE_NAME) is written using '''UTF-8,
 it is rendered incorrectly'''. I suggest changing that line to
 {{{
     return HttpResponseForbidden(t.render(c), content_type="text/html;"+
                                               f"
 charset={settings.DEFAULT_CHARSET};")
 }}}
 or perhaps leaving out the `content_type` entirely.

 Currently I'm using a workaround, by adding
 {{{
 <meta http-equiv="Content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
 }}}
 to the template's HEAD, but it seems to me that the suggested fix is a
 better solution.
