Import existing Python project ?

Hi All;

I'm just trying out Intellij IDEA, with a view to using it for both Python and Java development.
Unfortunately, my first attempt at importing an existing Python project didn't do so well - and I was really hoping somebody could offer some advice ?

Say I have an existing project:
../project
../project/main.py
..project/utils
..project/utils/logging.py

How do I import that into Intellij? From the "new project" menu, there doesn't appear to be the ability to import a python project from existing sources.
I've tried creating a new project, and pointing the root at the existing project structure (hoping it would scan for exsiting files) .... but I just end up with an empty project.

Please can someone please advise?

Many thanks for any help,
Marc
