Well, I'm really not sure what you've got going on. You definitely
need enctype="multipart/form-data" for it to work. Have you tried
saving a file in the default admin for the model? If so, does it work
as expected? If not, maybe you have MEDIA_ROOT set wrong. Also try
simplifying your form to make sure there's nothing wrong there. Try:
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action=".">
{{ form }}
</form>
I'm really not coming up with anything else, but maybe you could post
more of your code for the view and the template.
