Query problem with nested fields using DSL with elasticsearch

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

When I try to query a nested field that exists, I didn't get any result (it
isn't return any error):

            result = es.search(
                      index="mydb", 
                      doc_type="collection", 
                      body={"query": 
                        { 
                              "term" : {
                                  "foo.bar.field" : value
                              }
                        }
                      }
                    )

NOTE: field is inside bar and bar is inside foo:

{ 'topfield' : 23, 'foo' : { 'bar' : { 'field' : 69 }, 'otherfield' : 1}}

If I try the same with a field in the top, it works properly:

            result = es.search(
                      index="mydb", 
                      doc_type="collection", 
                      body={"query": 
                        { 
                              "term" : {
                                  "topfield" : value
                              }
                        }
                      }
                    )
