Modules can be mapped to a file/directory hierarchy. Let's break down the visibility example in files:

$ tree .
.
├── my
│   ├── inaccessible.rs
│   └── nested.rs
├── my.rs
└── split.rs

In split.rs:

// This declaration will look for a file named `my.rs` and will
// insert its contents inside a module named `my` under this scope
mod my;

fn function() {
    println!("called `function()`");
}

fn main() {
    my::function();

    function();

    my::indirect_access();

    my::nested::function();
}

In my.rs:

// Similarly `mod inaccessible` and `mod nested` will locate the `nested.rs`
// and `inaccessible.rs` files and insert them here under their respective
// modules
mod inaccessible;
pub mod nested;

pub fn function() {
    println!("called `my::function()`");
}

fn private_function() {
    println!("called `my::private_function()`");
}

pub fn indirect_access() {
    print!("called `my::indirect_access()`, that\n> ");

    private_function();
}

In my/nested.rs:

pub fn function() {
    println!("called `my::nested::function()`");
}

#[allow(dead_code)]
fn private_function() {
    println!("called `my::nested::private_function()`");
}

In my/inaccessible.rs:

#[allow(dead_code)]
pub fn public_function() {
    println!("called `my::inaccessible::public_function()`");
}

Let's check that things still work as before:

$ rustc split.rs && ./split
called `my::function()`
called `function()`
called `my::indirect_access()`, that
> called `my::private_function()`
called `my::nested::function()`
