As is, the diagram doesn't convey any of that.  For example, main.py is 
a program, not an algorithm. we can't tell that main.py imports three 
modules.  They might just as well be internal classes.  If you want to 
communicate something you need to say or show what that thing is.

This might be close to what you have said (I only show 2 of the 3 
modules and I didn't have the page width for the bottom left-hand label) -

                      ------------
                      |  main.py | --implements--> Agorithm A
                      ------------
	               /        \
                      imports  imports
                        |         |
                        ↓         ↓
                    ---------   --------
                    | V.py  |   | S.py | --implements--> Subalgorithm A.2
                    ---------   --------
