So you want to use a relative path then? Have you tried this:

filepath = os.path.join(os.getcwd(), '..', 'C', filename)
f = open(filepath, 'r')

etc.?

It's really quite straightforward to walk up and down directory trees, please
take a closer look at the documentation for os and os.path modules (see
http://www.python.org to find documentation for your version).
