div

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'sky' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I don't see?

'for silly short film turned' is the wordplay.
'for silly' becomes 'd' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'short' means to remove the last letter.
'film' becomes 'vid' (short for video).
'turned' is a reversal indicator.
'vid' with its last letter removed is 'vi'.
'vi' in reverse letter order is 'iv'.
'd'+'iv'='DIV'

'to' is the link.

(Another definition for div that I've seen is " Glaswegian do".)
