I will write an example with comments:

# say, this is a file/module foo
x = 1 # this is our variable
# end of module foo
----------------------
# other module, where x is needed
import foo
foo.x  # here you have it
# end
----------------------

It is all simple, but you need to have proper hierarchical import-ing.
You are splitting a file, which has a hierarchical order (count lines),
so writting proper importing is possible at least in principle.
