Is it a tags-like column? If so, this search template will be the fastest way. Set 'field' to your column lookup key. This will work for non-tags-like, but in that case it won't be much faster than a GPM template.

python:
def evaluate(book, context):
	field = '#genre'

	items = book.get(field, [])
	if not isinstance(items, (list, tuple, set)):
		items = (items, )
	for t in items:
		if t.endswith('.'):
			return '1'
	return ''
