As mentioned in another comment, Quest for Fire is a great film that tries to explain exactly this.
It follows the path of a group of Neanderthals in Paleolithic Europe (80,000 years ago), that try to tame fire, and their contact with homo-sapiens and other humanoid species.
It is outdated/inaccurate, given our today's knowledge, but We know The authors tried to do as much justice as they could, given the knowledge of the time.

It was one of those slow but very captivating movies of the era. Movies like this (both indy feel and very high quality), are just are not made anymore.
