I got to this film by using keyword "Don". It was about the Soviet victory at Stalingrad, and includes several well known sequences, with German prisoners and with Paulus.

I found it. It has the ID 1073.13.
In its description it is stated: "Various close up shots of some of the German generals captured during the battle of Stalingrad. Among those noted are Brigadier General Demitriu, Lieutenant General Schlemmer, Major General Von Drebber and Lieutenant General Von Daniel.". Maybe this is the answer to your question. |

The film id is 1073.13
The caption mentions "Brigadier General Demitriu" I think he is brigadier general Romulus Dimitriu. |

Do you have any information about his career before and after he was captured? |

Born on 23 November 1892 in Targu-Jiu, brig. gen. Romulus Dimitriu had been promoted in to this rank in 1942 and was teh commander of teh 20th Infantry Division's infantry (he was the second in command). After NicolaeTataranu left for Bucharest he became the provisional CO on 14 January 1943. In 1941 he was on the front as deputy commander of the 21st Infantry Division. From August 1941 he became deputy CO and then CO of the 35th Reserve Division until it was disbanded. He returned with the Horia, Closca si Crisan Division and died in Craiova on 17 January 1981.
