Another quick workaround is to load your CSV to RDS or any other mysql instance first, which is quite easy to do (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/Introduction.html) and then use DMS (AWS Database Migration Service) to load the entire data to dynamodb. You'll have to create a role for DMS before you can load the data. But this works wonderfully without having to run any scripts.
