The bullet points in the error message provide some possible solutions. I'd start by adding {% csrf_token %} after your opening <form> tag in the template. Also of note though is that you've imported 'csrf' and 'RequestContext' in your view but you don't appear to be using them anywhere (at least not in the views code snippet you provided here).
