Depending on the depth of hierarchy you wish to cater for, categories
may be helpful.

add the CATEGORY property (C-c C-x p cat TAB) to A and B headings,
something like "Project A", say, and this will appear on the left of
the line in the agenda view in lieu of the file.  Categories can help
give you a single level of context.

Arbitrary levels can be achieved with tags, by the way.

HTH.
