Unfortunately what you're trying to do is not trivial. You would need something like a "reverse nested query" to do this, which [has been discussed but is not likely to be implemented in the short term](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/20101).

There is a suggestion in [this topic](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/query-on-fields-of-owning-document-inside-nested-query/58369) on how you could rewrite your query logic. Maybe that helps?
