Naturally. You're trying to access a thing called 
ay-slash-be-slash-see-dot-pee-dee-eff. And it's not there.

If you want to get substructures in Python, you can do one of these things:

container.A.B.C   # can't go to something with a dot in the name
container.A.B['C.pdf']
container['A']['B']['C.pdf']
container.restrictedTraverse('A/B/C.pdf')

Restricted traverse is probably the best way to deal with a variable 
path, as you seem to have.
