SQLAlchemy filter on list attribute

I have the following model defined with Flask-SQLAlchemy:

"""models.py"""

from flask_sqlalchemy import SQLAlchemy

db = SQLAlchemy()

class Candidate(db.Model)
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    skills = db.relationship("Skill", secondary=skill_candidate)


class Skill(db.Model):
    id = db.Column(db.String, primary_key=True)
    name = db.Column(db.String, nullable=False, unique=True)

skill_candidate = db.Table(
    'SkillCandidate',
    db.Column('skill_id', db.String, db.ForeignKey('skill.id')),
    db.Column('candidate_id', db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('candidate.id')))

What am trying to achieve is the following : I want to return all the candidates who possess skills provided in a list input (even ideally, a list of skill_id)

I tried the following :

def get_skilled_candidates(skill_ids):
    return Candidate.query.join(skill_candidate).\
       filter(and_(*[skill_candidate.c.skill_id == skill_id for skill_id in skill_ids])).\
            all()

The aim was to filter all candidates for every skill and compose it with a and_ statement

It works well if I use a list of 1 item (it returns all candidates that possess the skill) but does not if I add more skills in the input list (even tho I have candidates in base that fit the criteria)
