Remove embedded document in a nested array of docu

My schema looks like this:

"content" : [
        {
            "_id" : ObjectId("4fc63de85b20fb72290000f8"),
            "assets" : [
                {
                    "path" : "temp/4f840af9565832fa14000002/4f840b1e565832fa14000007/4fc63de85b20fb72290000f7/content/I_Understanding_and_Measuring.pdf",
                    "_id" : ObjectId("4fc63def5b20fb722900010e")
                },
                {
                    "path" : "temp/4f840af9565832fa14000002/4f840b1e565832fa14000007/4fc63de85b20fb72290000f7/content/me.jpg",
                    "_id" : ObjectId("4fc63e4d5b20fb722900015d")
                }
            ],
            "content" : "",
            "name" : "Downloads"
        },
        {
            "_id" : ObjectId("4fc63dfd5b20fb722900012a"),
            "assets" : [
                {
                    "path" : "temp/4f840af9565832fa14000002/4f840b1e565832fa14000007/4fc63de85b20fb72290000f7/content/me.jpg",
                    "_id" : ObjectId("4fc63e055b20fb7229000147")
                },
                {
                    "path" : "temp/4f840af9565832fa14000002/4f840b1e565832fa14000007/4fc63de85b20fb72290000f7/content/thierry-henry-12-31-11-1.jpg",
                    "_id" : ObjectId("4fc63e525b20fb7229000164")
                }
            ],
            "content" : "",
            "name" : "Bio"
        }
    ],

I can retrieve this document with:

db.presentations.find({'content.assets._id': ObjectId('4fc63def5b20fb722900010e')})`

I've tried the following to remove an document from the assets collection with the line below, but to no avail:

db.presentations.update(
  {'content.assets._id': ObjectId('4fc63def5b20fb722900010e')}, 
  {$pull: {'content.assets': {'_id': ObjectId('4fc63def5b20fb722900010e')}}}
)

I'm trying to remove an item from the corresponding assets collection by its id. Any ideas?

You are so close! Remember that your outermost "content" is an array itself. So the following 2 character change works, use content.$.assets inside the value for $pull.

db.presentations.update(
  {'content.assets._id': ObjectId('4fc63def5b20fb722900010e')}, 
  {$pull: {'content.$.assets': {'_id': ObjectId('4fc63def5b20fb722900010e')}}}
)

Zoom ahead.
