Tigers in chains hope to unlock heavens for rain in Mexico

Hundreds of people have dressed as tigers in chains paraded through the Mexican streets of Chilapa to celebrate the La Tigrada festival.

The festivities combine a mix of color, music and religion as people disguise themselves to give thanks to the god of rain and the virgin of assumption for blessings in the coming year.
