	Figure 1: Movie Sketch of the $AdS5$ (bulk cylinder with boundary $R × S3$ ) space-time and the $S5$ (sphere) space.
	Figure 2: Movie The folded string extending from $y = -y0$ to $y = y0$ , where $sin2 y0 := q$ .
	Figure 3: Movie The one-loop energies of the folded (dark) and circular (light) string solutions plotted against the filling fraction $J2/J$ . The dashed curve is the mirrored folded string solution where one interchanges $J1 <--> J2$ .
	Figure 4: Movie The action of the dilatation operator on a trace operator.
	Figure 5: Movie Bethe root distribution for the gauge dual of the folded string. For large $L$ the roots condense into two cuts in the complex plane.
