> We have many nested parquet files generated from Apache Spark for ranking problems, and we would like to load them in python for other programs to consume. 
> The schema looks like 
> {code:java}
> root
>  |-- profile_id: long (nullable = true)
>  |-- country_iso_code: string (nullable = true)
>  |-- items: array (nullable = false)
>  |    |-- element: struct (containsNull = false)
>  |    |    |-- show_title_id: integer (nullable = true)
>  |    |    |-- duration: double (nullable = true)
> {code}
> And when I tried to load it with nightly build pyarrow on Oct 4, 2017, I got the following error.
> {code:python}
> Python 3.6.2 |Anaconda, Inc.| (default, Sep 30 2017, 18:42:57)

> {code}
> I somehow get the impression that after https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-911 is merged, we should be able to load the nested parquet in pyarrow. 
> Any insight about this? 
> Thanks.
