Poto and Cabengo, to use Grace and Virginia's nicknames for one another, were raised in what, sonically and linguistically, can only be described as unique circumstances.
The result was Poto and Cabengo's so-called 'language,' which was, in actual fact (and the documentary eventually reveals this), ultimately proven by analysts to be little more than a confused and confusing hodgepodge of multiple, divergent and occasionally incompatible sonic qualities, thoroughly informed and influenced by the girls' peculiar home environment.
From the unlikely flow of sonic intensities that Poto and Cabengo find themselves subjected to, they ultimately produce a whole new 'language'—or, at the very least, a whole new type, regime or possible trajectory for sound, which the rest of the world has to deal with, has to learn to listen to.

Listening to Poto & Cabengo for the first time will probably be a surprise -- contrary to expectation, you have to search for the familiar creaky crackly sounds of Jens Massel.
Poto & Cabengo's music is influenced by country and folk, not without humour and not without the corresponding seriousness and a thorough knowledge of the typical characteristics of these styles.
They have dug up the instruments again and combined them with their electronic gear to create an album so unique, so bare of reminiscences and so far from anything labelled 'zeitgeist' today that it can hardly be described.

Sharing a name with an obscure documentary could not be more fitting for this duo.
Jens Massel and Michael Cramm, aka Poto and Cabengo, figuratively parallel the subjects of the film, twins who speak their own language to each other.
With a sound as that's a fusion of folk, country and electronica, these two obviously speak their own language.

 Jean-Pierre Gorin
These three films: Poto and Cabengo (1978), Routine Pleasures (1986) and My Crasy Life (1991) deserve to be much more widely seen and discussed; and the videos Letter to Peter and a record of Olivier Messiaen's opera St.
Poto approaches the theme of "children and language" through the case of two young San Diego twins, Gracie and Ginny Kennedy, who had apparently invented a private language.
If Poto was about children and language, Routine Pleasures makes of its investigation of "men and imagination" in 1980s America "a small-scale epic," in Gorin's words, a remake of Only Angels Have Wings (Howard Hawks, 1939).

 LUX catalogue : Documentary
Poto And Cabengo was the first solo film by Godard’s former collaborator Jean-Pierre Gorin.
As Gorin tries to unpick the secret of the girls’ speech, Poto And Cabengo combines elements of a scientific detective story with a a sensitive portrait of the twins and their family: the American dream dissolving into a study of suburban décor and arrested innocence.
Gorin never loses sight either of the humanity of his subjects—he does not condescend to the pathetic parents—or of the film's formal complexity, which constantly varies its permutations of sound, written text, and image, often, as in the [Dziga Vertov Group] period, privileging the first.
