Farah was born in Beirut in 1995, to a Lebanese mother and a Syrian father. Her mother used to obtain student residence permit for her and her 3 sisters on an annual basis. Back then, the information issued by the general security regarding Lebanese mothers and their children were very ambiguous, so Farah’s mother used to ask for these annual permits, until she discovered by coincidence that she could ask for the infamous courtesy residency permit.

The father was waiting eagerly for his crown prince to be born. But after 9 months, his wife gave birth to yet a third baby girl. Having been disappointed twice before that, Green's father did not accept this shocking outcome and he did everything in his power to convince himself that this baby girl is indeed the boy he has been waiting for. And as "his boy", he would take her with him when he goes to hang out with his male friends, he would pick up her boyish outfits himself, and he would even talk to her like one of his buddies to the extent of sending her pictures of hot girls.
