Em um momento em que as fronteiras entre arte, política e regulação eleitoral se tornam cada vez mais porosas, o ministro Kassio Nunes Marques recusou-se a barrar o filme 'Dark Horse', rejeitando sem análise de mérito o pedido movido por aliados do presidente Lula. O Tribunal Superior Eleitoral encerrou a ação, preservando a liberdade de exibição da obra — mas deixando sem resposta a pergunta mais profunda: onde termina a expressão cultural e começa a propaganda eleitoral? A decisão, ao contornar o mérito, não resolve a tensão; ela a suspende.
